Question

Im 14-16 weeks pregnant. Is it normal to feel your belly firm at times and at other times squishy?

Share

Im a first time mommy-to-be and I just get nervous over any little thing. I was just wondering if its normal for my belly to be firm at times(mostly when im up and after I get done eating) and when I lay down its squishy hehe. I think I can feel the baby though because Ive felt like flutters on my lower abdomen (a litlle bit under my bellybutton) it feels like you have a little butterfly inside you lol. I was just wondering if anyone has experienced this :)

Its okay. I know Im pregnant, my belly has popped out and it wasnt so noticeable a month ago... Im having symptoms, boobs are way bigger, and it might be tmi but im extremely gassy and my vaginal discharge has increased and the most recent thing.. Flutters!! I can feel my baby... And i know its not gas im feeling because i had never felt this before until now.. It feels like little twinges or little muse spasms that last a couple seconds and then stop... Thry happens right between my bellybutton and pelvic bone. The trick is ive had neg hpt and blood tests... But i know im preg. I just wanna know if this has happened to any other mommies.. Because sometimes i feel like im crazy.

The same thing happened to me i had numerous neg hpt and blood tests, but i know I'm pregnant 14 weeks to be exact and have a baby bump and feeling little flutters and twinges! Glad to know I'm not the only one.
